Do Dating Apps Make it Harder to Find Love?
Sangeeta Singh-Kurtz and Lakshmi Rengarajan, hosts of the newest season of The Cut's podcast, "Land of the Giants," join Offline to talk about how apps like Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble have redefined romance.

Jon talks to them about the ways internet dating has gamified romance, what the current dating app generation has lost, and whether there are alternatives for finding love in a world of swiping.
